A STUNNING SANCTUARY IN THE HEART OF THE MAYAN FOREST
Set amidst 750 acres of vast gardens and vibrant jungle in the small village of Chochola lies the luxury boutique hotel of Chable Yucatan. Only a 30-minute drive from Merida, Chable Yucatan is a secluded 19th-century hacienda that has been restored to combine its original charm with a more contemporary feel.
The design, inspired by traditional Mayan architecture, combines the original hacienda features with chic limestone walls and modern wood panelling. Each of the elegant casitas and villas enjoys a view over the forest through floor-to-ceiling windows, plus an outdoor shower, terrace and refreshing private pool. From your room, you can take to the streets in a hired bike or discover the region’s crumbling Mayan ruins which include the formidable Chichen Itza and Uxmal.
There’s also cookery classes and tennis courts to enjoy, as well as an incredible spa which is the undisputed high point of any stay here. Housed within a cenote – a natural sinkhole sacred to the Mayans – the Chablé Spa is a sophisticated haven where personalised treatments are inspired by both old rituals and advanced techniques.
